Chapter 207 Survival from desperate situation
Zhuang Yu frowned as he looked at the increasingly dangerous restriction.
The air was filled with a burning smell, which made his mouth dry.
The faint golden light now gleamed like a sharp blade, radiating a chilling aura.
The space around the barrier distorted slightly, as if it might collapse at any moment.
He knew full well the dangers ahead, and his heart pounded violently in his chest, each beat striking his ribs.
"Buzz—" The restriction emitted a deep buzzing sound, and the golden light suddenly intensified, enveloping Zhuang Yu within it.
He felt an immense pressure squeezing in from all directions, as if it were going to crush him into dust.
He gritted his teeth, activated the Heavenly Divine Technique, and mobilized all the spiritual power in his body to resist the pressure.
Sweat dripped down his forehead and soaked his clothes.
"Haha! Zhuang Yu, you've finally met your match!" Jin Yangzi's shrill laughter rang out in the air. He and Mu Zi returned, their eyes gleaming with greed. "Hand over what you got from the treasure pavilion obediently, and perhaps we can spare your life!"
Mu Zi added sinisterly, "Don't forget, there's also that Heavenly Divine Technique! You, a mere mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, are not worthy of possessing such a powerful technique!"
Zhuang Yu glared angrily at the two of them, a surge of rage rising within him.
These two despicable scoundrels actually tried to take advantage of the chaos!
He suppressed the pressure from the restrictions and sneered, "You two pieces of trash dare to lay a finger on my things?"
"You won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences!" Jin Yangzi's face darkened, and a gleaming golden sword appeared in his hand, its tip pointing directly at Zhuang Yu. "Since you're courting death, don't blame us!"
Mu Zi also drew a long black sword, its blade shrouded in black mist and emitting a nauseating, fishy stench.
The two men, one on the left and one on the right, surrounded Zhuang Yu, forming a pincer movement.
"Young Master..." Wang Yao's anxious voice came from afar, but with her weak cultivation, she was unable to get close to the area shrouded by the restriction.
Zhuang Yu took a deep breath, and slowly raised his right hand. A faint blue light quietly appeared in his palm...
"It seems we have no choice but to use it..."
The deep blue light gradually expanded, eventually transforming into a crystal-clear jade ruyi.
Mysterious runes flow across the surface of the jade ruyi, exuding an ancient aura that sends chills down your spine.
This aura was as vast as the sea and as deep as an abyss, seemingly originating from the ancient wilderness, carrying a suffocating pressure.
Jin Yangzi and Mu Zi's arrogant demeanor vanished instantly, replaced by barely concealed terror.
They felt a powerful force locking onto them, as if they would be crushed into dust at any moment.
"What is this thing?!" Jin Yangzi exclaimed in surprise, his voice trembling slightly.
He had never seen such a powerful magic weapon before; the mere aura it emitted made his heart pound with fear.
Mu Zi was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she almost dropped the black longsword in her hand.
He instinctively wanted to escape, but found that his body was frozen in place and he could not move.
A cold smile appeared on Zhuang Yu's lips. He gave a soft shout: "Go!"
The jade ruyi shone brightly, instantly transforming into a stream of light that shot towards Jin Yangzi and Mu Zi.
With a loud "Boom!", the Jade Ruyi collided with the attacks of Jin Yangzi and Mu Zi, bursting forth with dazzling light.
The violent energy swept outwards, destroying everything around it.
Jin Yangzi and Mu Zi were sent flying backward like kites with broken strings, crashing heavily to the ground, spitting blood and barely breathing.
Just then, a golden figure flew in from the depths of the celestial palace, radiating a powerful aura.
"Who dares to trespass into the forbidden area of the Immortal Palace!"
The guardians of the celestial palace have arrived.
Zhuang Yu's gaze sharpened, and he dared not be careless in the slightest.
The strength of this Celestial Palace Guardian is unfathomable, and is definitely not comparable to the likes of Jin Yangzi and Mu Zi.
He dodged the guardian's fierce attack with a swift movement.
"Boom!" The guardian's attack missed, blasting a huge crater into the ground.
While dodging the guardian's attacks, Zhuang Yu carefully observed the changes in the restriction, searching for its weak points.
"This restriction is powerful, but it's not without flaws..." His eyes flickered as he thought to himself, "As long as I find a weak point, I can escape!"
The guardians' attacks grew increasingly fierce, and Zhuang Yu's situation became more and more dangerous.
But he remained calm throughout, without the slightest sign of panic.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up as he noticed a subtle fluctuation within the restriction...
“That’s it!” Zhuang Yu said in a low voice.
A glint flashed in Zhuang Yu's eyes as he spotted a fleeting, subtle fluctuation within the restriction—the most vulnerable point in the entire golden cage.
He took a deep breath, and the spiritual energy in his dantian surged out like a burst dam, pouring into his legs.
His body shot out like an arrow, whistling through the air, heading straight for that weak point.
At the same time, Zhuang Yu's thoughts stirred, and the defensive magical treasures that had been prepared in the mysterious space were instantly activated, transforming into layers of shimmering shields covering his body.
These shields exude an ancient and powerful aura, resembling impregnable fortresses.
As far as the eye could see, layers of shimmering light draped him like a sacred armor, making Zhuang Yu appear even more powerful, like a new star emerging from its cocoon, radiating dazzling light.
"Bang—" Zhuang Yu slammed hard into the weak point of the restriction, making a deafening noise.
The golden light trembled violently, like a mirror struck by a heavy hammer, with spiderweb-like cracks appearing on it.
Zhuang Yu felt a powerful backlash, as if it were about to tear him apart, but he gritted his teeth and frantically circulated his spiritual energy, managing to withstand the impact.
He exerted his strength again, concentrating all his power into this one point, like a sharp awl, piercing fiercely into the restriction.
With a crisp "crack," the restriction shattered like broken glass, turning into countless golden fragments that dissipated into the air.
The moment he broke through the restriction, a dazzling light burst forth from Zhuang Yu's body, like the rising sun, radiating boundless light.
He felt every pore on his body open up, and an unprecedented sense of power filled his limbs and bones.
He knew he had succeeded!
Zhuang Yu stepped into the void, and in a flash, he appeared outside the Immortal Palace.
He glanced back at the magnificent celestial palace behind him, a confident smile playing on his lips.
He opened his palm, and a jade ruyi scepter, shimmering with a deep blue light, lay quietly in his hand, radiating a powerful aura that sent chills down one's spine.
During his trip to the celestial palace, he not only obtained the Heavenly Divine Technique, but also this powerful magic treasure, making it a truly fruitful journey!
He suddenly raised his head and let out a deafening roar towards the sky, his voice like rolling thunder, echoing through the heavens: "I, Zhuang Yu, have returned!" His voice was filled with pride and joy, announcing the successful conclusion of his exploration of the Immortal Palace and marking another boost to his strength.
In the distance, a familiar figure came into view from the jungle, running rapidly toward him.
The figure drew closer, growing clearer with each crisp footstep.
Wang Yao saw Zhuang Yu's figure from afar, and her heart finally settled down.
Her eyes sparkled with excitement, and her face beamed with a radiant smile, like a plum blossom blooming in winter, beautiful and captivating.
She lifted her skirt and ran quickly toward Zhuang Yu, her steps light and graceful, like a joyful sprite.
"Young Master!" Wang Yao's clear voice echoed in the valley, trembling slightly with joy.
Upon hearing Wang Yao's voice, Zhuang Yu's lips involuntarily curled up slightly.
He opened his arms and embraced Wang Yao tightly as she rushed towards him.
Wang Yao exuded a faint, sweet fragrance, which made him feel incredibly safe and warm.
"Young Master, it's so good that you're alright!" Wang Yao buried her head in Zhuang Yu's chest, feeling his strong heartbeat, her voice choked with emotion.
Zhuang Yu gently stroked Wang Yao's hair and said softly, "Silly girl, I promised you I would come back safely."
The two stood embracing, feeling each other's warmth and reliance.
The afterglow of the setting sun fell upon them, casting long shadows that looked like a beautiful painting.
After a long while, Zhuang Yu and Wang Yao reluctantly parted ways.
Hand in hand, they walked into the distance, leaving behind a trail of joyful footprints.
Just then, a mysterious aura suddenly appeared in the distant sky.
This aura was as vast as the sea and as deep as an abyss, carrying a chilling pressure.
Zhuang Yu and Wang Yao stopped at the same time and looked up into the distance.
Their eyes were filled with doubt and wariness.
"What is that?" Wang Yao asked in a low voice, her tone tinged with unease.
Zhuang Yu frowned, his eyes blazing as he stared intently at the mysterious aura.
He sensed a powerful force rapidly approaching, and his heart skipped a beat.
"Looks like we're in trouble again..."
